Volume 2 Twilight of the Blackstone Empire Seventy-three, The Return Journey
Out of Willy's Mansion Wang Xiaoqiang muttered vigorously Hart Willy old jiān cunning tricked himself into swearing that Laoshzi, there is always a strange feeling at this moment, although he said that he gave himself a pound of money, but this thing is obviously poor jingling, and the words are beautiful.
After a while, Wang Xiaoqiang came to the butcher shop and carried a pig's head, and by the way, he took a cabbage from the vegetable seller next to him. This person, if his status is high, it is troublesome, and he has many gifts, if he doesn't go to Willy Mansion, Archduke Hoover can't help but go, and he is the bud wine of Assyria County and the earth dragon of Misty Mountain, he is not so capable, and carrying a pig's head is the highest treatment.
But when they came to the gate of the Hu-style Grand Duke's Mansion, the already high-spirited guards saw that this guy who was looking for the temple gate with a pig's head could let him in, and scolded him and threw him out, and they all had to fight.
"Hey, why are you so doggy looking at people low? Let me tell you, Lao Tzu is a person who calls him a brother and a brother to a big man, and if you stop it, be careful that I will beat you. Wang Xiaoqiang scolded.
"You're still beating me? Do you know where this is? This is the residence of Grand Duke Hoover, and you dare to shout and beat people here, brothers, take down this arrogant boy for me. A guard scolded, and then a group of guards from the Hu-style Grand Duke's Mansion surrounded Wang Xiaoqiang, Wang Xiaoqiang carried a pig's head in one hand and cabbage in the other. The strength of this high-ranking knight was really strong, and the man covered his eyes, and tears came out.
Suddenly, it was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and a group of guards scolded and scolded Wang Xiaoqiang and punched and kicked, but he was really tired of Wang Xiaoqiang's old bones, and he barely resisted this group of guys after desperately resisting. It's just that the retribution is not happy, a blue eye socket has been imprinted in Wang Xiaoqiang's eye socket, Wang Xiaoqiang can't make a fuss here, he has to hate his teeth, and the surrounding buddies who tried to hug the thigh of Grand Duke Hoover saw this brother so strong, and they were secretly stunned for a while, why didn't they think of this trick?
When Wang Xiaoqiang was jubilant with this group of buddies, an old man trotted out and shouted: "Why is this fighting, stop it." Hearing the old man's shouting, a group of guards stopped angrily. The old man saw a child with a blue nose and swollen face, and there was a burst of surprise in his heart, the guards of the Hu-style Grand Duke's Mansion all had two brushes, and this person could hold out for so long under the siege of so many people, not to mention that this anti-beating ability alone was impressive, and he wondered: "Child, what are you going to do?"
"I'm looking for Big Hu. Wang Xiaoqiang rubbed his face and grinned.
"Big man Hu?" The old man looked puzzled, could it be that he was talking about Grand Duke Hoover? Suddenly he shouted with an annoyed face: "You kid is so bold, you dare to come to the Hu-style Grand Duke's Mansion to make trouble, and you don't weigh your own weight, who are you." ”
"I'm Baron Efake! Big Hu still calls me a brother, which onion are you?" Wang Xiaoqiang retorted.
Suddenly, the old man seemed to be strangled by the neck, squeaking and not knowing how to speak, this guy with a blue nose and swollen face was the bold guy from Tanser County, Grand Duke Hoover liked him very much, and he didn't want to let a group of guards beat him, and suddenly changed to a smile and said: "It turned out that Lord Alphack was here, these guys looked down on people, and they didn't know your dignity and bumped into you, it's really embarrassing." Come, and please come in adult. ”
Wang Xiaoqiang was beaten inexplicably, and he was really aggrieved in his heart, and followed the old man to the Hu-style Grand Duke's Mansion, seeing that it was not pleasing to the eye, kicking and stepping all the way, and did not use the light of redemption to treat the injuries on his face, waiting to find the big man Hu to sit on the ground and raise the price.
When the little old man led Wang Xiaoqiang to Grand Duke Hoover, the big man Hu looked at him like this and immediately smiled and asked, "Brother Ai, what's wrong with you, why are you so miserable." ”
"You're still asking me what's wrong? I'm here to give you some gifts, who would have thought that those dogs at your door were too domineering, and they would do it if they didn't agree with each other, no, I would be beaten like this. Wang Xiaoqiang pointed to the bruises on his face and said: "Look here, and here, it's still painful now, no matter what, you have to compensate me." ”
"Reparations?" said Archduke Hoover, puzzled.
"Well, this number. Wang Xiaoqiang stretched out his five paws again and shook them, muttering in his heart: Bo Pound, Bo Pound, come to Dad.
"Go and get 50,000 pounds as compensation to Baron Efalk. Grand Duke Hoover said to the butler beside him, and then asked: "Brother Ai, what do you think of this? It doesn't hurt your feelings, right?" Wang Xiaoqiang nodded as a matter of course, his heart was already happy, and he took out the pig's head and cabbage from the armory and threw them to Hu Dazi and said, "Don't you come to find your brother, you are drinking, the dishes are ready." ”
Seeing the pig's head carried by Wang Xiaoqiang, Grand Duke Hoover had a different face, how to eat this thing?
"Find someone to cook this pig's head first, and then I'll do it. Wang Xiaoqiang said with a grin. The big man Hu gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Ai, you can also do this skill, and you can really do it." Wang Xiaoqiang said in a stinky manner, a little understood. Soon a servant shaved the pig's head into the kitchen and stewed it, and Wang Xiaoqiang also took the pound from the old man as scheduled, patted his ass and said: "Brother Hu, you are arrogant, look at what Hart Willy, who lives in such a small broken yard and said that he wants to support me on the pound, I don't bother to pay attention to his poor and sour appearance." ”
Grand Duke Hoover said with a smile: "Brother Ai, you can look away, then Hart Willy is a first-class rich man in the Blackstone Empire, next time you don't care about him, don't be petty, you will ask for 50,000 pounds, the minimum is 500,000, the more you want, the more you will be in his heart." ”
"What, really?"
"Can I lie to you? Hoover joked.
Wang Xiaoqiang slapped his thigh with regret, and said in his heart, why didn't he care about him just now, alas, regret it. At that time, he was going to wave this fortune claw, and 500,000 pounds were in place on the spot. Then Wang Xiaoqiang and Hu Dazi talked about each other, sometimes there are some things that don't need to be said, they are clear in their hearts, like Wang Xiaoqiang and Hoover are such people.
After a long time, an attendant walked in and whispered that the pig's head was cooked. Wang Xiaoqiang said with a smile, Brother Hu, just look at my craftsmanship. Then Wang Xiaoqiang and the attendant came to the kitchen together, shredded the cabbage, rolled it twice in the boiling oil pot, and rolled the red pepper and some persimmon vinegar several times, and the sour and hot cabbage came out of the pot, and instructed the servant to fry two peanuts, and he used a sharp knife to remove the meat on the pig's head. Pig ears and pig nose this kind of meat in the bones and bones of the meat must not be missed, in addition to some fat but not greasy parts of the pig's head, shredded into the plate and some sauce mixed with a mix, then poured some hot chili oil, sprinkled with some green onions, the second dish cold salad pig's head face is proper, and then add the fried peanuts, the three dishes slowly served to the Grand Duke of Hoover.
After taking a seat, Wang Xiaoqiang directly rolled up his sleeves, unceremoniously put his big feet on the stool and shouted: "Shangbud Valley wine." ”
"Brother Hu, how about you taste it? Wang Xiaoqiang said happily. Hoover, however, was accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and it was rare to taste this light peasant dish, so he smashed his mouth and said, "Good, it tastes great." ”
In this way, the two arrogant old men rolled up their sleeves, squatted on the chairs, ate pig's head meat and drank the mellow bud wine brewed from pure grains, and talked about something critically, nothing more than some women and thieves who were beautiful. Or brag about how powerful his work at night is, Wang Xiaoqiang just had to boast that he was as powerful as seven times a night, but the truth was that the little brother went on strike and closed down if he was not careful.
"I'll tell you, Brother Hu, I don't lie to you, that Widow Liu's nǎizi, that ass...... At that time, I didn't know how Ai Lao Er had such a soft spot, and I understood it after talking to you. Wang Xiaoqiang smacked his lips and said.
Grand Duke Hoover said with a look of surprise: "In this case, I really have to see who this Widow Liu is." ”
Eat and drink well, everything is fine. After being full of wine and food, Wang Xiaoqiang got up and said goodbye, and before leaving, he held his right chest with his left hand and saluted to the end, and gave Hoover a big salute and said: "Boy, thank Brother Hoover for saving his life." Big Hu waved his hand and said, Go ahead. Wang Xiaoqiang's figure slowly disappeared into the crowd.
"Lord Duke, this kid is too greedy, isn't he?" asked the old man who looked like a butler.
When Grand Duke Hoover heard this, he shook his head and smiled: "No, you are wrong, this kind of straightforward person is much better than David and Hart, these are just small hobbies." Tens of thousands of pounds, for me I don't have this plate of pork head meat to my appetite. In the future, there will be a lot of trouble. ”
On the way back to the official post, Wang Xiaoqiang bought some desserts by the way and brought them to Bo Shu Rouran, otherwise this little cabbage would not know what kind of trouble he would have to make when he disappeared for a day. When Wang Xiaoqiang pushed open the door of the room, he did see a melancholy face, the little cabbage supported his chin with both hands, squatted on the chair and looked unhappy, and ignored Wang Xiaoqiang when he came in. Wang Xiaoqiang handed these desserts to the little cabbage Bo Rouran, and a bombardment of sweet words made the little girl burst into tears. Bo Zhi Rouran pointed to the ground and said, "Look, many people give you gifts. ”
Wang Xiaoqiang took a look at the names on these gifts, a certain marquis, a certain earl, all some noble lords, of course, these noble lords are also the various officials of the Blackstone Empire, giving gifts is nothing more than to express some goodwill, and in the future, it will be a little bit of a friend, so as not to clash with this new 'big man' in some small things, as a courtesy, Wang Xiaoqiang also has to return the gift one by one, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't bother to pay attention to this troublesome matter, hugged Bo Xianrouran on the spot, and threw it on the soft big bed, and said with a bad smile: "Baby, I'm here." ”
A few days later, Wang Xiaoqiang was recruited to the Taiping Palace again, and David Anthony, who had been as diligent as an old scalper, was unable to meet Louis the Great at home because of his illness.
Some people said that Wang Xiaoqiang was dismissed from his post, after all, if the Imperial Inspector who had been killed was reappointed, the impact on the Blackstone Empire would be somewhat bad, and some people supported Wang Xiaoqiang's reinstatement, after all, Wang Xiaoqiang's merits were greater than his faults.
After some discussion, Archduke Hoover spoke, proposing to appoint Wang Xiaoqiang as the administrator of Tanse County on the grounds of guarding the northernmost fortress of the empire, after all, Wang Xiaoqiang still made certain merits in Tanse County. Later, at the suggestion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Hart Willy, Louis the Great, on the throne, promised to issue a letter of appointment to the consul of the county of Tanse on the spot, and the dispute ended happily.
The next day, Wang Xiaoqiang, with the blessing of many nobles, got into a carriage and drove slowly towards Tanse County.
He will be greeted by a great future, a lot of pounds and beautiful babies.
